Lasówka at a glance

The municipal description refers to a fairly easy, 5-kilometre cross-country ski trail and notes that it is suitable for beginners and families with younger children. The border cycling route passes through Lasówka to Mostowice and Rudawa. In addition, a 67-kilometre section of the international cycling route ER 2 runs through the village. Another route, 6.5 kilometres long, ends at the ski stadium. St Anthony’s Church dates from 1910 to 1912; opposite it are slight remains of a glassworks that had been in operation since 1612.

Which routes pass through Lasówka?

The cycling route along the Polish-Czech border passes through Lasówka and continues to Mostowice and Rudawa. It is connected to the international cycling route ER 2. This description highlights the border setting and the connection to the two places mentioned.

The 67-kilometre ER-2B section of the international cycling route ER 2 – Szlak Liczyrzepa can be distinguished from this route. It passes through Lasówka between Międzylesie and Ostra Brama in the Czech Republic. The two cycling route descriptions therefore refer to different sections and endpoints: one focuses on Mostowice and Rudawa, while the other describes the connection between Międzylesie and Ostra Brama.

Another route description concerns a 6.5-kilometre connection. A municipal tourism report from 2024 describes it as starting at a hiking trail near Mostowice and continuing along roads and forest tracks to the ski stadium in Lasówka. There, it meets the blue hiking trail. The ski stadium is the endpoint in this description; the named paths make up the route. As conditions can change seasonally, it is a good idea to check the current route conditions before setting out.

When planning, it helps to first distinguish between the types of routes and their stated destinations: the border cycling route to Mostowice and Rudawa, the longer ER-2B section, and the connection to the ski stadium. This makes it easier to understand the different route descriptions without combining them into a single route.

What should you know about the cross-country ski trail?

The municipal description characterises the 5-kilometre loop as fairly easy and identifies beginners and families with younger children as suitable groups. This provides a useful point of reference if cross-country skiing is one of your travel interests. However, the trail depends on snow, and conditions vary by season. Bear this in mind when planning your trip, and check local conditions before organising your day around the trail.

What do the church and glassworks tell us about Lasówka?

St Anthony’s Church is built of stone, is neo-Romanesque and dates from 1910 to 1912. Opposite it are slight remains of a glassworks that had been in operation there since 1612. The two sites represent different aspects of the village’s history: the church can be understood in terms of its architectural style and date, while the glassworks remains recall earlier glass production. The extent of what survives is important: what remains are slight traces, not a fully preserved glassworks building.
